How to style your bangs beautifully: types and styling methods

First of all, salutations from the bangs club! You can experiment with different styling options and effectively complement your appearance with this aspect of the hairstyle. Just check out how different the bangs are in the picture! Traditional straight, pixie cut, go well with a bob, side swept, or trendy curtain bangs… You seem to want to give them all a try!

Second, we advise you to dedicate some time to learning the correct way to style your bangs using an iron, comb, and hairdryer. Not only does your hairstyle affect how other people see you, but it also has a significant impact on your inner mood—and this is far more significant!

Yes, it wouldn’t hurt to get some assistance at first with styling the hair close to your face; therefore, we’ve prepared instructions for taming the most common styles of bangs.

If things don’t work out right away, don’t worry. We personally know girls who have learned this art from the beginning and are now producing stylish hairstyles on a daily basis.

Styling bangs to one side

Try a retro hairstyle, like the one in the picture below, if you want to wear your long bangs to the side. Such bangs will look fantastic at a party reminiscent of The Great Gatsby. Apply the Style Link Gel from Matrix to the bangs to easily give them the desired shape.

Curtain bangs styling

Do you think girls who have curtain bangs look good too? They appear to have just left the stylist’s office. However, we are positive that you are just as capable of doing your own hairstyles. What are you going to need for this?

• Apply styling mousse to semi-damp locks;
• curl strands on both sides with curlers;
• dry your hair with a hairdryer;
• wait until the curls cool down (if you have time, it is advisable to walk around like this for a couple of hours – there is a better chance that the styling will last until the end of the day);
• remove the curlers and gently straighten the bangs with your hands, and if necessary, use a comb.

Fake bangs

You’re wrong if you assumed we were discussing hairpieces. Hair, typically pulled back into a ponytail or bun, is thrown over the head in a particular manner to create the illusion of fake bangs.

Experience has shown us that it can appear fairly natural, particularly if evening styling is used to emphasize an unusual focal point. Additionally, because the strands that will temporarily take on a different role are not yet acclimated to their new role, they should be styled using a high-temperature flat iron or curling iron. Let’s review a basic formula in this regard: it’s crucial to apply a high-quality heat-protective cream to the curls prior to styling, and then to use a fixing hairspray.

Styling bangs with a hairdryer

What could be more commonplace than using a hair dryer for styling? In any case, a focused stream of hot air is typically used by stylists to give the curls close to the face the desired shape.

1. 1 Do not forget that you should only style damp, clean hair with a hairdryer.
2. 2 Take a hairdryer, remove the guide nozzle from it and dry your hair by 70 percent at medium or maximum temperature.
3. 3 Now proceed to giving the strands the desired direction and shape. We suggest adding volume to the hair at the roots – for this you will need a large-diameter round brush. Wrap the curls to the comb in the direction of the face, simultaneously drying the strands at the roots.
4. 4 The next step will require a comb with a smaller diameter. Place it over the bangs right at the roots and, creating the necessary tension, hold the curls in this position for a few seconds, while simultaneously directing hot air onto the bangs.
5. 5 Then change the position of the comb, pulling the hair in the central part of the strands under the bangs.
6. 6 Finally, give a neat shape to the ends. To do this, place the brush over the bangs, between the ends and the central part of the strands. Start curling the ends away from the face towards the ears. Done? Spray the bangs with hairspray – the styling is complete.

Styling regrown bangs

Everyone has the occasional problem of running out of time for a stylist. Or perhaps you’ve just decided to grow out your bangs because you’re sick of them? Regardless of the situation, you should ideally keep facial hair out of your eyes.

We’ll walk you through the fast and easy styling of long bangs.

1. 1 Let"s start with the classics – styling the growing bangs with invisible hairpins. You can put the strands back, keeping them away from your face, or toss them to the side. Experts advise pinning the hairpins crosswise, and it must be admitted that it looks stylish. We would like to add that protruding hairs can be tamed with the help of hair gel. A suitable product is available in the Matrix line.
2. 2 Use a headband. We recommend getting one for everyone who wears bangs: it is convenient to put on before washing your face or, for example, applying a mask to your face. And it is also a fashionable accessory that looks very feminine.
3. 3 What about a braid? Or two at once, if you wear curtain bangs? You can leave the bulk of your hair loose or gather it into a ponytail and carefully pin the end of the braid under the elastic band with which you secured it.

By the way, big-diameter curlers work well for styling long bangs. Depending on the look you want, you can curl the bangs on them in a direction opposite to the direction of your face.

How to style long bangs beautifully: step-by-step instructions

We’ll walk you through the steps of styling your long bangs at home and what you need to prepare them if you want to tame them right away.

1. 1 Let"s start with washing your hair. If you have been wearing bangs for a long time, then you know that they are often the first to lose their freshness. You should not apply nourishing conditioners and masks to them. But light leave-in products are just the thing! They will help smooth out the strands and prepare them for styling.
2. 2 Dry your hair, but leave the bangs damp if you want the strands to be more obedient and remember their shape during styling.
3. 3 Divide the bangs into two equal parts and distribute styling mousse and heat protection over them. By the way, L"Oréal Professionnel has a product that adds volume to curls and protects against the effects of hot tools.
4. 4 Now take the first section of hair and curl it on a round brush. In this position, dry this part with a hair dryer, choosing a warm mode.
5. 5 Carefully loosen the curls and repeat the same steps with the other part.
6. 6 Finally, fix the result with hairspray, spraying it on your hair from an outstretched arm’s length.

Owning your own hairstyle doesn’t have to be difficult. You can get a polished look in minutes with the correct tools and a few easy techniques.

Practice and confidence are essential whether you want a bit of volume or a sleek finish. Try out a variety of techniques until you determine which suits your face shape and hair type the best.

You’ll save money and time by learning these tricks, and you’ll always have a new look on hand when you need it.

With the correct tools and techniques, styling your own bangs at home can be quick and simple, saving you both money and time compared to salon visits.
